KSI vs Logan Paul 2 fight date, start time, undercard, weigh in and how to watch the rematch in the UK

The road to KSI vs Logan Paul 2 all began last year, when in late February 2018 YouTuber KSI, real name Olajide Olatunji, challenged Logan Paul to a boxing match, which ultimately ended in a draw after six rounds.

Eighteen months later, the two YouTube stars are going head to head again in a much anticipated rematch set to be watched by millions and attended live by a host of famous faces.

This time, both YouTubers are going above and beyond and doing everything they can to try and beat the other in the fight. KSI has been training with Olympic boxer Anthony Joshua, while Logan Paul is apparently enduring as self-imposed ‘sex ban’ on himself to store enough testosterone to win the boxing match. Whatever works for you, bro.

KSI also brought Logan’s dead dog into the mix, Kong Da Savage – who was sadly killed by a coyote – by turning up to the London press conference with a lookalike pooch to taunt his rival and saying Logan would be Kong and KSI would be the coyote. Ouch.

Who is Logan Paul and what is his net worth 2019

Logan first rose to fame on Vine and then moved to YouTube in December 2016 when the video shorts platform was shut down.

The 24-year-old vlogger, who was born in Ohio, posted a video every day from the end of 2016 to 2018 and quickly built up a huge online audience as a result.

Logan’s popularity was boosted by that of his brother Jake’s who is also now a YouTuber but started out as a Disney Channel star.

Despite a well-documented feud between the brothers in 2017, the brothers have since made up and frequently appear in each other’s YouTube videos.

The successful YouTube star met serious controversy in January 2018 when he visited Aokigahara, also known as Japan’s suicide forest, and filmed a dead body. The video was live for 24 hours before the YouTuber deleted it from his channel following worldwide backlash.

Logan withdrew from the spotlight for a month before beginning to create content for YouTube once again following KSI’s cal lout to challenge him in a boxing match.

Forbes estimated in 2017 that Logan Paul was worth $11.5 million (£8.9m).

KSI first entered the boxing ring when he took on another fellow YouTubers, Joe Weller, in February 2018.

Forbes listed KSI as as the fifth highest-paid YouTuber four years ago with a net worth of $4.5 million (£3.5m).
